Abdulrahman Ibrahim Ibn Sori, African Nobleman and Slave
Abdul-Rahman ibn Ibrahima Sori (1762 -1829) was a West African nobleman and Amir who was captured in the Fouta Jallon region of Guinea, West Africa and sold to slave traders in the United States in 1788. Upon discovering his noble lineage, his slave master Thomas Foster, began referring to him as Prince, a title by which Abdul Rahman would remain synonymous until his final days. In 1928, after spending 40 years in slavery, by order of President John Quincy Adams and Secretary of State Henry Clay after the Sultan of Morocco requested his release. In 1829, Thomas Foster agreed to the release of Abdul-Rahman, without payment, with the stipulation that he return to Africa and not live as a free man in America. He lived for four months before contracting a fever and died at the age of 67.
